I try to trade my Pension on the big move of the indices which is usually follows the 'Sell in May and Stay Away' principle - I have actually found over the last couple of years that profit taking from Santa Rally often occurs a little earlier around April - Possibly linked to CGT and end of financial year planning.

The pension pot is currently x8 the size of my trading account funds - so it is presents quite an opportunity for potential growth (or loss.)
I start to reduce my funds and move towards cash as April Approaches.

I have currently moved to 65% cash in anticipation of a possible pull back on the DOW - however may jump back in if 14200 is broken and holds on re-test.

As you can see my charting software is a cheap freebie and will not allow me to properly plot the DOW so the attached is google finance screen grab!. So appologies if not 100% accurate - Just thought I would share and see if anyone else trades their pension.
